Finally got round to washing it, first time in about 2 months :embarrassed:

Nice looking car but why don't you give the snide comments a rest now.

Lol yeah it is Becky dremills work well but note to self though ' read description 1st ' will probably fit the dtuk get the footwell warm hopefully soften the connectors that I read have a tendency to break that's the big concern not having small hands lol

Neil, they've upgraded the connector clip now from problematic grey one to oem red one, so apparently the issues have been resolved, main problem with the old one was when removing it anyway, but my grey clip was very stiff on fitting.  So hopefully you won't have any issues.
